Tip:World Food Festival

For those who like to stay informed of trends and developments in the culinary field, the World Food Festival in Rotterdam is a must. Not only can you taste food, the festival also offers plenty of food for thought.

Food innovations
Rotterdam is the perfect place for a festival about the trends and developments in the culinary field. Rotterdam is overflowing with initiatives in this area:from the first urban agricultural company in Europe to the first covered market hall in the Netherlands (opening in 2014). The festival spreads out over the entire city and port, with the Museum Park as its beating heart, where you can look into the future of food in the Future Food House with, for example, culinary jam sessions by top chefs.

Taste, experience, participate
In addition, the city with 170 cultures is a source of culinary diversity, which you can of course see, taste, discuss and experience during the World Food Festival. Visit one of the many events, markets, tastings, workshops, city routes or interactive exhibitions.
